With a solid game from Kyle Crowell, the Cougars
grab win No. 200 for head coach Rayner Noble
The UH baseball team
got another outstanding
effort from right-handed
pitcher Kyle Crowell to
spark the Cougars to a 4-
0 Conference USA win
over Saint Louis on April
28 on the road in
Missouri.
In the process Houston
head coach Rayner Noble
picked up his 200th
career win while in his
sixth year at UH.
Crowell fired a complete game four-hit shut
out for his team-leading
10th win of the season.
The junior from
Friendswood struck out
eight and walked just two
SLU batters. It was
Crowell's fourth complete
game and third shutout
of the 2000 season.
The Cougar offense
gave him all the runs he
would need in the top of
the third inning. With
two outs already recorded
in the frame, senior
Aaron Melebeck singled
and stole second.
Melebeck then scored on
a double by Tyson
Schweitzer, who eventually came home when
Jason Pekar drew a walk
with the bases loaded to
give Houston a 2-0 lead.
In the top of the eighth
UH stretched the lead to
4-0 when J.P. Woodward
drew a walk and then
scored on a two-out, two-
run homer by Kris
Wilken. The blast to right
field was Wilken's eighth
homer of the year. The
junior from
Albuquerque,
N.M., is currently 13-of-
his-last-27 in Houston's
last six games.
Noble, now 200-142 in
his sixth year at the helm
of the Houston program,
has led the Cougars to
their best record through
45 games since 1990.
"It's a nice feeling to
get No. 200," Noble said,
"but there's a lot more
baseball to be played this
season."
The Cougars would go
on to win the C-USA regular season title.
